Trinomials are a part of the polynomial group of algebraic expressions. Trinomial expressions contain only ‘3’ terms separated by either addition or subtraction operation between the terms, and thus the name! Factor trinomial calculator is the fun tool which can instantly simplify and factor any given trinomial expression.

Example 1:Factor the given trinomial expression: x³y + 2x²y² + xy³

Given polynomial expression: x³y + 2x²y² + xy³

In the above three terms, we can see that ‘x’ and ‘y’ are the common factors, since they are present in all the three terms.

Hence we get > x³y + 2x²y² + xy³ = xy(x² + 2xy + y²)

Now (x + y)(x + y) when multiplied together gives > (x² + 2xy + y²)

Hence > (x² + 2xy + y²) = (x + y) ²

Hence > x³y + 2x²y² + xy³ = xy(x + y)²

Example 2: Factor the given trinomial expression: x³ - 8x² + 15x

Given polynomial expression: x³ - 8x²+ 15x

In the above three terms, we can see that ‘x’ is a common factor.

Hence > x(x² –8x +15)

Now(x² –8x + 15)is in the form of a quadratic equation which can be factored as (x – 3) (x – 5)

Hence (x² –8x + 15) = (x – 3) (x – 5)

Hence the polynomial expression can be factored as > x³ - 8x² + 15x = x(x – 3)(x – 5)

I just want you to know how great Brinda has been in tutoring me on probability. She is patient and very knowledgeable in all concepts. I look forward to many more sessions with her. I appreciate her help and the great work that Tutor Pace is doing.

I have enjoyed my session with Aparna and it was helpful. I will hope to see her as my Math tutor in future sessions as well.

Your tutor has been such an inspiration to me as I have difficulty getting some of the physics concepts down and truly understanding them. She takes the time to fully explain each and every aspect of any problem I might ask for help and always with encouragement and humor.
